Our aim is to create vibrant, resilient & truly sustainable places

We specialise in regenerative placemaking, collaborating with clients, partners, stakeholders and communities to realise the true potential of spaces and places.

We are passionate about regeneration through participation and believe a holistic approach to urbanism, architecture, conservation, sustainability and co-creation is necessary to create a vibrant, resilient and truly sustainable future for our towns and cities - where people, places and nature can thrive.

We work across a variety of scales and contexts, across the UK and Ireland.

We create regeneration strategies for towns and cities, reimagine heritage sites and buildings, enhance public and green spaces, and create sustainable masterplans and operating plans for future use.

Our experienced and multi-disciplinary team of architects, planners, researchers and strategists mean we aren’t afraid to propose bold ideas, but we always keep an eye on what can be practically and sustainably delivered.

Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do.

Our creative engagement techniques help uncover imaginative solutions to complex challenges. We believe in the power of multi-solving, where the right project - delivered in the right way - can address many problems at once, and deliver a cascade of positive social, environmental and economic impacts.

We highlight the potential benefits of our designs and strategies, and how these are linked to policy objectives, funding opportunities and local priorities. This approach builds genuine support and momentum behind ideas, helping them to become reality!

Our Design Ethos

  • We work with the unique heritage, identity and assets of each place.

  • We ask ‘what if’ while remaining rooted in ‘what is’, imagining hopeful responses to social, economic and environmental challenges.

  • We seek to increase perspectives and participation by working collaboratively with clients, communities, stakeholders and specialists.

  • We encourage experimentation and meanwhile uses, understanding that successful places are not static but evolve over time.

  • We work across micro to macro scales, and aim to maximise positive impacts.

At Studio Myco we’re inspired by the unique powers of fungi - master placemakers of the natural world.
